What A Weekend!

This weekend, I drove 8 hours to my family cabin. We left Friday at 2 and headed back to Des Moines on Sunday at noon. A lot of people think my family is crazy because we drive 1000 miles in a weekend to spend about 30 hours at our cabin.

Little do people know, it is totally worth it. To the right is a picture of our final destination on our saturday ride. This is Kettle Falls, which is a river that borders the United States and Canada. I am standing in the U.S. and to the right is Canada.


On Saturday my family rode 225 miles in just one day. I am not sure I have ever ridden that many miles in one day, but it was a lot of fun! I am doing something new this year and keeping track of how many miles I ride for the season. So far, this seasons total is 1473 miles!


The day ended when we made it back to Lake Vermilion and I saw one of the prettiest sunsets I had seen in a long time. It had the most bautiful colors and I had to stop and take it in for a few moments.
